Pyongyang, May 1 (KCNA) -- The rat-like Lee Myung Bak group of
traitors can neither escape severe blows by the nation nor get a chance
to regret itself once a merciless retaliatory war is launched by the
DPRK.
Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this in a bylined article.
The
group of traitors on the deathbed is making last-ditch efforts by
resorting to more challenging methods for escalating confrontation
against reunification, the article says.
It goes on:
The
situation has now reached the phase that can no longer be overlooked. To
cope with this situation the revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK
issued a solemn notice that resolute special actions would soon be
launched to mercilessly destroy the bases of provocations. The special
actions would represent a patriotic and just war for firmly defending
the dignity of the supreme leadership of the nation and realizing the
cherished desire of all the Koreans at home and abroad for the nation's
reunification, peace and prosperity.
The will of the DPRK to
launch a resolute retaliatory war is to root out the source of war and
confrontation from the Korean Peninsula.
Too clear is that no
threatening words can work on such traitors as they are seized by the
ambition of escalating confrontation between social systems and kicking
up war hysteria to invade the DPRK, clean indifferent to the national
reunification and the destiny of the nation.
The Lee group of
conservatives is steeped in sycophantic treachery to the marrow of their
bones and born with vicious nature against the nation and the people.
As long as it is allowed to stay in power, it would be impossible to
realize the desire of the people for independence, democracy and
reunification.
The just retaliatory war will rid the Korean nation of the military demarcation line and bring reunification to it.
Those
who dare hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK and its
social system will never go scot-free, whoever and wherever they are.
The enemies of national reunification fated to be wiped out by the army
and people of the DPRK are just a handful and no time will be taken in
throwing them into the dustbin of history. -0-

Pyongyang, May 1 (KCNA) -- The ever-growing ranks of the working
people will provide a powerful force for overthrowing capitalism, says
Rodong Sinmun Tuesday in a bylined article.
Not only workers
engaged in physical labor but those in technical and brain work have not
become masters of the production means in the capitalist countries, the
article says, and goes on:
White-collar workers have certain
differences from blue-collar workers in their technical and cultural
levels. But common is that they are all hired by capitalists and live
with wages they are paid for their exploitation. So it is natural that
in the capitalist countries the working masses of different classes and
strata strongly call for independent living and development against
exploitation and oppression by capitalists.
Recent years witnessed
big demonstrations in the U.S. and other capitalist countries in which
the workers protested against the disparity in wealth and financial
monopolistic capitalists. Not only the unemployed but the middle classes
took part in the demonstrations unprecedented in scale in the history
of capitalism.
Capitalism is now plunging into the abyss of ruin
in the face of the broad working masses' fight against daily-worsening
political and economic crisis and exploitation and oppression.
The
capitalist class is trying hard to benumb the independent awareness of
the working people and break down their unity in a desperate bid to
weather the crisis.
But capitalism is bound to go to ruin. -0-

ASSOCIATION FOR THE STUDY OF SONGUN POLITICS UK
www.uk-songun.com email juche007@yahoo.co.uk
London 30 April Juche 101(2012)

The Association for the Study for the Study of Songun Politics UK and Juche IdeaStudy Group of England issued the following joint statement in support of the workof dear respected general Kim Jong Un "Let Us Brilliantly Accomplish the Revolutionary Cause of Juche, Holding the Great Comrade Kim Jong Il in High Esteem as the Eternal General Secretary of Our Party".Our delegation having recently returned from participating in the World Juche Congress and the celebrations of the centenary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung finds this work of dear respected general Kim Jong Un to be of great interest and inspiring.This work correctly calls for upholding the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il as the eternal general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea . This means that there can no deviation or concession so that the Juche revolutionary cause is firmly guaranteed. Respected First Secretary Kim Jong Un in the work defined the Workers' Party of Korea as the party of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il and formulated Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism as the party's guiding idea. Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism is a great revolutionary ideology with Juche and Songun at is core. Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism is the guiding compass for the Korean revolution and the cause of independence for the world. Respected First secretary Kim Jong Un puts forward the revolutionary line of imbuing the whole society on Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism.
Respected First Secretary Kim Jong Un in his work calls for the steady and consistent improvement of the living standards of the people true to the precept established by the great leader President Kim Il Sung "the people are my god". Furthermore it calls for strengthening the defence capacity of the DPRK in order to defeat the moves of the imperialists to encroach upon the sovereignty of the DPRK. It also recognises that the building of socialism is
accompanied by serious class struggle against non socialist elements.
We ,the JISGE and ASSPUK, applaud this work and call upon the Juche idea and Songun idea followers of the world to study and promote this work.

Pyongyang, April 29 (KCNA) -- The United States is advocating a
"world without nuclear weapons" and letting loose rhetoric that it will
spearhead the struggle for building it. But it is the world's biggest
nuclear criminal. Rodong Sinmun Sunday says this in a bylined article.
The
article cites concrete facts to prove that the U.S. is the biggest
criminal that inflicted nuclear disasters upon mankind and triggered off
a nuclear arms race in the world.
It went on:
The U.S.
imperialists' reckless maneuvers for a nuclear war have brought the dark
clouds of war to hang over the Korean Peninsula and posed a constant
threat of a nuclear war to the Korean people.
The U.S.
imperialists' evermore undisguised nuclear blackmail compelled the DPRK
to bolster its capability for self-defence. As a result, it won
victories in the nuclear standoff with the U.S. and ensured the peace
and security of the Korean Peninsula and the rest of Northeast Asia.
In
view of the U.S. nuclear threat not only countries around the peninsula
but anti-imperialist independent countries have bolstered the defence
capabilities and strengthened the means for strategic deterrence.
The
U.S. is disturbing the normal relations among nations with its
double-dealing nuclear policy and creating complexity in the
international arena.
The U.S. is conniving and patronizing the
development of nuclear weapons by its junior allies while labeling the
peaceful nuclear activities of the countries desirous of independence
against imperialism as "development of nuclear weapons". It is even
contemplating a military attack on them, not content with ratcheting up
sanctions and pressure on them in collusion with those allies. This is a
manifestation of the intolerable U.S. double standards.
This is, at the same time, a product of the U.S. scenario for world domination.
If mankind is to live in a nuclear-free world, it should hold in check and frustrate the U.S. moves for a nuclear war. -0-

The DPRK held a meeting of the Supreme People's Assembly on the 13th of April. There was a report on the state budget. It was decided to increase public spending for the coming financial year.
Overall public spending will increase by 10.7 %. This is in complete contrast to the severe cutbacks in public spending announced in a number of capitalist countries including our own country.
Spending for education will increase by 9.2 percent, that for public health 8.9
percent, that for social insurance and social security 7 percent, that
for sports 6.9 percent and that for culture 6.8 percent over last year. It is particularly noteworthy that spending on education , health and welfare are being increased in the DPRK while in there are plans to cut welfare spending by 5%.
All this testifies to the superiority of Juche-based socialism centred upon the popular masses and the might of the independent national economy created by the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung and the correctness of the policies of respected general Kim Jong Un.

Pyongyang, April 28 (KCNA) -- The U.S. Department of Labor,
quoting a recent survey, said that the number of the unemployed totaled
12.7 million in March across the country, 42.5 percent of them being
long-term unemployed.
By the end of February, jobless people in
Japan and Italy reached 2.89 and 2.3 million each. The rate of
unemployment in Italy reached all time high since 2004.
Among the
member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development grouping Western countries the number of the unemployed in
February this year increased by half a million over that in the same
month last year to reach about 45 million.
The skyrocketing commodity prices plus serious joblessness are throwing a large number of people into abject poverty.
In
the last twelve months ending March this year the wholesale price in
the U.S. jumped 2.8 percent. In the same period prices of foodstuff rose
4.6 percent in the UK while the prices of overall commodities
leapfrogged 2.3 percent in France.
At a time when poverty is
becoming a serious problem in the capitalist countries, the New York
City authorities announced on April 17 that the rate of poverty in the
city in 2010 increased 1.3 percent over the previous year.
49.1
million poverty-stricken people were registered in the country by the
end of last year, 20 million of them suffering from abject poverty.
The
number of poverty-stricken people reached more than 12 million in
Germany and one of five persons are living below the poverty line in
Greece.
All facts go to prove that unemployment and poverty are an
inevitable product of capitalist society and the miserable plight of
majority of the population in the capitalist countries cannot be
otherwise as long as the reactionary and unpopular social system exists.

We visited the Democratic Peoples Republic of
Korea from the 9th of April to the 17th of April to attend the World
Congress on the Juche idea and the centenary celebrations of the birth
of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung, It was like a dream. Of course there was so much to see and do and so short a space of time, We saw graphically just how
false the so called reporting of the Western media is, Most of it is
just blatant lies and regrettably so called human right organisations
like Amnesty International join in with , It is a lie to say that there
is starvation, Most days the streets of Pyongyang were crowded with
people and we were at big events attended by tens of thousands of people
,everyone looked well fed, The standard of living is definitely on the
up , plenty of new fashionable clothing especially for women is
available. There were no power cuts in Pyongyang and there is more
traffic on the road, It has been said before but
it needs to be said again there were no beggars or homeless people on
the streets of Pyongyang. In London you will see many people sleeping
rough around Charing Cross station but nothing like that around
Pyongyang railway station. Many new buildings including housing
projects had been completed and many existing buildings were under
renovation or reconstruction, The Western
imperialist media were there, I experienced a loud mouth from either
ABC or NBC acting in a disrespectful and disruptive way at the unveiling
ceremony for the new statues of the 2 great leaders comrade Kim Il Sung
and comrade Kim Jong Il, Seeing the reality of the DPRK I became
convinced even more than before of the superiority of Juche based
socialism but we need to increase our activities to defend the DPRK 10
fold and a 100 fold, I would like to see a campaign for trade unions to
disaffilate from imperialism's fake human rights front Amnesty
International( the left should seeks to replace it with a genuine anti
imperialist class based human rights organisation), In the meantime the
best way to support the DPRK is to join the Korean Friendship
Association www,korea-dpr,com

Pyongyang, April 27 (KCNA) -- The Secretariat of the Committee for
the Peaceful Reunification of Korea (CPRK) Friday made public the
following information bulletin No. 996:
Chon Yong U, senior
presidential secretary for diplomacy and security of Chongwadae, at a
seminar sponsored by the "Institute for National Security and Strategy"
under the puppet Intelligence Service impudently mentioned the august
names of the peerless great men of Mt. Paektu, describing the dignity of
the supreme leadership of the DPRK and its system as "hereditary." He
went the lengths of malignantly defaming the pent-up grudge of the army
and people of the DPRK all-out to wipe out the rat-like Lee group as a
"new phase of accusations against the south."
Chon dared to
trumpet about "limit" and "change" in the DPRK, disclosing his
undisguised aim to escalate the confrontation of systems.
This is another hideous provocation pushing the inter-Korean relations to an extreme pitch of tension.
What
Chon uttered as a lackey of Chongwadae, the den of rats, suggests that
the Lee group is much upset by condemnation of its high treason.
As
for Chon, he is the closest confident of traitor Lee Myung Bak and
wicked confrontation maniac. When the DPRK launched Kwangmyongsong-2 in
2009, he jabbered "he couldn't understand the north as it squandered
money for space development at hard time for it." When he was vice
minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade in 2010, this guy called for
"sanctions against the north" while trumpeting about "someone's
collapse."
Lee let even Chon make reckless remarks in an effort to
save his face even a bit and justify his vicious moves to escalate the
confrontation by misleading the public opinion as he was driven into a
tight corner by the might of the angry service personnel and people of
the DPRK and the domestic and foreign public condemnation of his
thrice-cursed high treason.
The recent disclosure of more scandals
of his confidents such as Choe Si Jung, former chairman of the
Broadcasting and News Agency Committee, threw Lee and his group into a
bottomless predicament. The smear campaign kicked off by Lee was aimed
at preventing the public attention from being focused on him in a bid to
weather his ruling crisis and rally the conservative forces and turn
the situation before the "presidential" election favorable to him.
That
is why south Korean media and political circles and even the puppet
ruling quarters are critical of Chon's remarks, commenting they were
prompted by "ignorance and misjudgment of the north" and "it is not good
to repeatedly rattle the nerves of the north" and "they were designed
to bring about a turn in the phase for tiding over the internal crisis".
The
outbursts let loose by Chon indicate that Lee Myung Bak is making
desperate efforts by setting in motion even his mandarins, finding it
hard to escape thunder-like strikes after daring point an accusing
finger at the sky.
It is ridiculous, indeed, for the group of
traitors to talk about someone's "limit" and "change" after being cursed
and denounced before meeting a punishment for its crimes against the
nation and people.
It is none other than the Lee group which has
been put into a critical situation by the mindset of south Korean people
and the resentment of all Koreans. It is the group which should undergo
changes and deserves punishment.
There is a saying call a spade a
spade. If Chon wants to talk about heredity, he should take issue,
first of all, with the heredity of "yusin" fascist dictatorship rejected
and opposed by the south Korean people. If he wants to talk about
changes, he should refer to the call for abolishing the corrupt
unpopular system and the pro-U.S. regime for confrontation with fellow
countrymen, the unanimous demand of the people from all walks of life,
and respond to it.
For Chon to act in collusion with Lee Myung Bak
more dead than alive to shake his fist towards the sun is as foolish an
act as digging his own grave.
The Lee group's invectives are nothing but squeaks made by the rats before meeting deaths in face of the angry people.
The
more desperately this group of rats does mischief, bitterer hatred and
resentment it will touch off among the service personnel and people of
the DPRK and the further it will precipitate their doomsday.
The
army and people of the DPRK will wipe out not only the boss of the
rat-like traitors but also his yes men who hurt the dignity of the
supreme leadership and its system.
Those who hurt the dignity and
the system should bear in mind that they will not be able to escape the
most miserable death in face of the strikes of the Songun army of the
DPRK as is the case with the ratty Lee Myung Bak. -0-

Pyongyang, April 28 (KCNA) -- Ukrainian "Treasured Sword of
Songun" Association for the Study of the Juche Idea issued a statement
on April 22 as regards the publication of the dear respected Kim Jong Un's work "Let Us Hold Great Comrade Kim Jong Il in High Esteem as General Secretary of Our Party Forever and Successfully Accomplish the Revolutionary Cause of Juche".Kim Jong Un in the work defined the Workers' Party of Korea as the party of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il and formulated Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism as the party's guiding idea, the statement said.
This
has provided the DPRK with an ideological and theoretical weapon for
glorifying the revolutionary and patriotic legacies of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, it noted.
Concrete
tasks and ways for improving the standard of people's living and
stepping up the building of an economic power were also clarified in an
all-round way in the work, it added.
The Association voices full
sympathy with the work and would conduct positive activities to
disseminate Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism in the future, it stressed. -0-

The imperialist media have
become feverish in speculating about a DPRK n test. Now I am not saying
that they wont be one, Maybe during the next few days , maybe later in
the year or maybe not at all, However our dear friends in the media are
up to their usual old tricks, AP showed a satellite picture which is
meant to prove the test is going to happen , It proves nothing it could just be
an ordinary building site and we only have their word that the picture
is the alleged n test site

Pyongyang, April 23 (KCNA) -- The Secretariat of the Committee for
the Peaceful Reunification of Korea Monday issued its information
bulletin No. 995 lashing out at traitor Lee Myung Bak for again letting
loose a spate of provocative remarks gravely hurting the dignity of the
supreme leadership of the DPRK and its social system in a special
lecture on "north policy" on April 20.
It branded this as another
grave provocation of maniac keen on confrontation with fellow countrymen
and the most despicable pro-U.S. sycophantic remarks and jargons made
by an old man more dead than alive.
The information bulletin went on:
The
traitor let loose stupid rhetoric, while seriously hurting the dignity
of the supreme leadership of the DPRK and its social system and
shamelessly pointing an accusing finger to it.
The above-said
ridiculous behavior is nothing but the last-ditch efforts made by those
who are extremely irritated by the frustration of their foolish dreams
in face of the striking demonstration of the high prestige and
tremendous national power of the DPRK and its single-minded unity and
powerful military capabilities, in particular, through the celebrations
of the Day of the Sun and the lively response evoked by them among
domestic and world public.
It was aimed at improving even a bit
the Lee's poor position after being hit hard by service personnel and
people of the DPRK for his thrice-cursed crimes committed against the
nation and saving his face.
The mischief made by rat-like Lee
Myung Bak against them reminds one of a rabid dog barking towards the
sky. What Lee uttered is no more than squeaks made by the rat before
being killed by all people for its wrong doings.
Now the army and
people of the DPRK are shaking with towering indignation and anger and
their resolution to wipe out the Lee group is running high.
The revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK have already declared their special actions.
The
army and people of the DPRK will make rat-like Lee and his group meet
the most miserable and disgraceful end for doing such mischief in rat
holes as defaming the sun. -0-

Pyongyang, April 23 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK Monday issued the following statement:
The
hypocrisy and shamelessness of the double standards applied by the U.S.
recently under the pretext of ensuring world peace and security have
been brought to light to become the target of the international
community's criticism.
The U.S. malignantly slandered the DPRK's
satellite launch for peaceful purposes which was conducted in a
transparent manner from A to Z as "a long-range missile launch" and
spearheaded a campaign for "protesting" against it for no reason. The
U.S., however, backed other country's open launch of a long-range
missile, sparking off international furor.
When the U.S. came
under fire by world people for this behavior, it let loose such sophism
as that country posed no problem as it properly abided by international
law but the DPRK posed a problem as it failed to do so.
As far as
the observation of international law is concerned, it is the U.S. that
took the lead in meeting its own interests in disregard of the UNSC
resolution, its own making, and much-touted NPT when something runs
counter to its interests.
What matters here, in essence, is the
U.S. application of its double standards whereby it asserts any country
which does not obey it should be barred from developing anything for
peaceful purposes, to say nothing of bolstering defence capability while
any country friendly to it is allowed to have access either to nuclear
weapons or long-range missiles.
No wonder, even Western media
deplored American logic that what matters is not what one does but who
does anything and termed its attitude of distinguishing legality from
illegality according to the difference between systems as a clear
expression of double standards.
It is the trite method of the U.S.
that it resorts to high-handed and arbitrary practices in defiance of
international law and the UN when it considers any situation unfavorable
to it and when it wants to pull up others, it cooks up unreasonable
resolutions in a coercive manner by abusing the authority of the UNSC.
A
typical example of this is UNSC Resolutions 1718 and 1874 fabricated by
the U.S. These are the height of the application of the double
standards as they were illegally cooked up in wanton violation of the
universally accepted international law stipulating that "space shall be
freely developed and used by all states without any distinction" and the
principle of equal sovereignty provided for in the UN Charter.
The U.S. application of the double standards is, in the final analysis, a product of its hostile policy towards the DPRK.
It
is the inveterate habit of the U.S. to view everything done by the DPRK
from a conception of confrontation. It has systematically abused the UN
for internationalizing its hostile policy which calls for
unconditionally holding in check both the DPRK's use of nuclear energy
and space development for peaceful purposes under the pretext that they
may lead to bolstering up its military capability, a threat to the U.S.
The
UNSC is abused for implementing the hostile policy towards the DPRK
under the influence of the U.S. high-handed and arbitrary practices and
the UN Secretary General reelected, backed by the American master, plays
the role of a shock brigade in attacking the DPRK, revealing the true
colors as a servant of the U.S. This is the present regretful reality.
All
facts go to prove that only when a country is strong enough, it can
defend justice and dynamically promote global independence and that the
road of independence, the road of Songun chosen by the DPRK is entirely
just. -0-

During his trial Norwegian ultra rightist maniac who coldly slaughtered dozens of innocent people stated that he admired south Korea for its stance against Marxism. Well it is natural that someone Breivik should admire a fascist regime like south Korea. In the past south Korea through its "World Anti Communist League" courted all sorts of neo-nazis, fascists and racists and even funded the fascist National Front in the UK. What a regime !

Sunday, 22 April 2012

The Association For the Study of Songun Politics and Juche Idea Study Group of England wish to add our voices to those of the Korean people and world progressive people in supporting the statement of the KPA Supreme Command "Lee Myung Bak will face stern punishmennt " issued on the 18th of April .

It is absolutely disgusting that the Lee Myung Bak puppet fascist regime should insult the majestic and stirring events that took place in the DPRK to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung. Our organisations , the ASSPUK and JISGE were very proud to participate in these celebrations. Participating in these celebrations we witnessed the unity and harmony of the Korean people around respected general Kim Jong Un, as well as the remarkable
efficiency of the DPRK. We could see the deep respect and love people have for respected general Kim Jong Un as well in the deep reverence for the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung sun of Juche and the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il .
The south Korean puppets have now even plumbed even greater depths of depravity and meanness having previously insulted and slandered the DPRK during the mourning period for the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il.
We reiterate once again that the south Korean puppets headed by rat Lee Myung Bak have no place whatsoever to insult the supreme leadership and socialist system of the DPRK. South Korea is a vile fascist dictatorship created by the US, an artifical statelet where the people groan in poverty and misery and where there is a big gap between rich and poor. The DPRK, headed by respected general Kim Jong Un, is the only legitmate state on the Korean peninsula and it guarantees a happy and equitable life to its people.
The stance of the KPA Supreme Command is a just one . It is indeed it impossible to coexist with the Lee Myung Bak puppet regime as it proved itself a sworn enemy. We Juche idea and Songun idea followers of the UK applaud the will of the KPA and Korean people to wipe out the Lee Myung Bak puppets and reunify the motherland.
ASSPUK
JISGE

Pyongyang, April 22 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry Sunday issued the follow statement:
Prevailing on the Korean Peninsula is such emergency situation that the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors' confrontation hysteria has gone beyond a tolerance limit and should not be allowed to go on any longer.
The despicable group which has committed the worst evils went the lengths of recklessly hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK again.
It is the unanimous human nature and noble sentiment in the world to regard the cherished mental mainstay as dignity dearer than one's own life and not to tolerate any act of hurting it.
It is, at the same time, the universally accepted morality to respect the dignity of the supreme leadership of each country and nation irrespective of idea, system, religion and political view.
Traitor Lee Myung Bak, however, let loose a string of such malignant invectives that can be uttered only by a shark that the north might spend a ridiculous amount of money for the celebrations of the centenary of the birth of President Kim Il Sung and that amount of fund would be enough to buy a large quantity of food. This was, indeed, a hideous provocative act of seriously hurting the noble feelings of the Korean people.
The centenary of the birth of Kim Il Sung, the benefactor of the national resurrection, the great sage of mankind and the eternal President of the DPRK, is the greatest holiday of the nation in history and the great jubilee in human history.
Lee is no more than human scum of the times as he so malignantly desecrated this significant holiday, far from congratulating the compatriots in the north on it.
It is certain that he went through an ill-famed course before being reduced to human scum.
Looking back on history, it was none other than Lee who drove the inter-Korean relations into the lowest ebb though they had developed thanks to the growing desire for reunification after the publication of the June 15 joint declaration and he was the arch criminal who escalated only the tensions on the peninsula and in the region.
The group of traitors was busy with the groundless false propaganda that "the north was stockpiling food for feasts on the Day of the Sun," not content with making desperate efforts to deter the international moves for food aid to the DPRK last year. At that time we had already branded him as an underwit.
The service personnel and people of the DPRK are shaking with irrepressible resentment at the group which defamed the father of the nation whom they are holding in high esteem as the sun. They are now eagerly waiting for the issue of an order so that they may mercilessly punish the traitor.
Loud shouts of slogan "Let us beat to death the group of rat-like Lee Myung Bak" are also heard even from the women of the country known as a country of courteous people in the East from olden times.
As the Lee group is making last-ditch efforts to seek a way out in escalated confrontation with fellow countrymen, the service personnel and people unanimously hold that this group should be eradicated as early as possible for being a cancer-like entity disturbing the peace and stability in the peninsula and the region.
The situation on the peninsula is so tense that it may go beyond control due to the desperate frenzy of the traitor on the deathbed.
In view of the prevailing situation, the DPRK Foreign Ministry solemnly declares that in case something happens on the peninsula now, the responsibility will entirely rest with traitor Lee.
If any country intends to interfere in the internal affairs of the Korean nation under the pretext of being an ally or partner, patronizing the above-said human scum which wantonly violates human ethics and morality, it will not be able to escape the strikes of the extremely infuriated service personnel and people of the DPRK. -0-

STATEMENT OF THE STOKE ON TRENT BRANCH OF THE JUCHE IDEA STUDY
OF BRITAIN
ON THE ELECTION OF COMRADE KIM JONG UN TO THE POSITION OF FIRST SCRETARY OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE WORKER'S PARTY OF KOREA AND TO THE POSITION OF THE FIRST CHAIRMAN OF THE NATIONAL DEFENCE COMMISSION OF THE DEMOCRATIC PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF KOREA
The Stoke On Trent Branch of the Juche Idea Study Group of Britain wishes to congratulate KIM JONG UN upon the assumption of the post of the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and the position of the First Chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK. We, strongly believe that KIM JONG UN will perform most credibly in the posts to which he has been elected recently.
As experience has demonstrated, KIM JONG UN is a Leader who is absolutely loyal to the revolutionary legacy of KIM IL SUNG and KIM JONG IL, that is to the cause of upholding the red banner of Juche. KIM JONG UN devotes his efforts to the prosperity and well-being of the Korean people. Under KIM JONG UN guidance the self-reliant might of the Songun-based revolutionary armed forces have been raised to new heights. KIM JONG UN makes it his policy to be always with the Korean people in the carrying out the independent socialist cause.
The decision of the 4th Workers' Party of Korea conference to have made KIM JONG IL the eternal General Secretary of the WPK reflects the will of KIM JONG UN to safeguard and to promote Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism still further. KIM JONG UN's election as the first secretary of the Party will advance the WPK as the guide and organiser of the Korean people in the decades to come. KIM JONG UN's election as the First Chairman of the NDC DPRK will strengthen Korean-style socialism and promote the independent and peaceful reunification of the Korean peninsula.
As witnessed by the April 15th 2012 (Juche101) military parade, KIM JONG UN is indeed an authoritative leader of the Korean Revolution. With KIM JONG UN as the Leader of Socialist Korea, the Juche heritage of President KIM IL SUNG and General Secretary KIM JONG IL will be carried forward and KIM IL SUNG's Korea, KIM JONG IL's nation will be all powerful and prosperous.
LONG LIVE THE DEAR RESPECTED COMRADE KIM JONG UN!!
LONG LIVE THE GLORIOUS WORKERS' PARTY OF KOREA!

Pyongyang, April 20 (KCNA) -- Today marks the 20th anniversary of the Pyongyang Declaration "Let Us Defend and Advance the Cause of Socialism".
The declaration has served as an inspiring banner for political parties and people throughout the world aspiring after socialism.
In the early 1990s, socialism collapsed one after another in some countries and the imperialists were advertising the "end" of socialism. On top of that, renegade socialists were claiming that the socialist idea itself was wrong.
Thereby, many countries desirous of socialism began to harbor doubts about it.
At that time, representatives of 70 political parties from across the world, including 48 party leaders, met in Pyongyang to sign the Pyongyang Declaration in the name of their parties.
The declaration was inked by more than 150 political parties until the end of Juche 81 (1992).
Over the past years, the world's socialist movement has got momentum, inspired by the declaration.
The advantages of the socialist system in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea inspire the world's progressives with confidence that socialism is truth and science and it will unfailingly emerge victorious. -

Thursday, 19 April 2012

Our delegation consisted of 2 of us from the JISGE and ASSPUK. It was a great honour to visit the DPRK on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung, the eternal president of the DPRK, father of the Juche idea , founder of socialist Korea and a great outstanding leader of the international communist and revolutionary movement. Our time passed very quickly when we were in the DPRK, so much was packed into a short space of time. It is difficult to know what to include in the report ; the World Juche Conference, the celebrations of Sun's Day , the respected general Kim Jong Un and the true reality of Juche socialism. This report will serve as an interim report with an expanded version will be produced later. Our delegation at times doubted whether we would ever make it to the DPRK, all sorts of things seemed to threaten our visit, family issues, problems getting the Chinese visa ( which was obtained after hard work and effort by the DPRK embassy here and the Air Koryo office in Beijing) and been told just as I was checking in at Heathrow that the surname and first name on my ticket had been reversed. However we got there in the end !Our thanks is also due to our old friend Kim Song Il of the KPEIC Beijing bureau who kindly assisted us in Beijing. Our trip had so many high points it is difficult to list them all or put them in order of priority. We boarded our Air Koryo flight to Pyongyang on Monday 9th of April. We arrived in the afternoon. Pyongyang was covered in the beautiful April sunshine . We were met at the Airport by Professor Ri Mu Il , who heads the British studies section of Kim Il Sung university and is an expert on Britain. He was our guide for the visit. Professor Ri was a jolly and humourous man. My first impression on visiting the DPRK again after 4 years ago was that the socialist system is solid and the red flag is literally flying high on the streets of Pyongyang. At some street corners we saw many red flags flying , elsewhere the flag of the Workers' Party was promeniently displayed. Juche Korea is probably the only country in the world to fly the red flag on the streets ,maybe only 1 or 2 other countries do so. Pyongyang does not have capitalist advertising . There are no branches of McDonalds, KFC or other American fast food chains (which cause litter) . There are now many stalls and kiosks selling food and drinks on the streets of Pyongyang but these are state and co-operative owned. Looking around Pyongyang we could see how blatant the lies about the DPRK . We not only went around in a bus but walked through the streets and on one occasion got lost the Pyongyang Indoor Gymnasium, there was no sign of any starving people. Everyone was out enjoying their public holiday. People were well dressed. There is now a greater variety of clothing available, Trousers seem to be the favourite fashion for Korean women but the idiotic south Korean puppets had claimed that women are banned from wearing trousers in the DPRK and this was repeated by the Western imperialist media. Such stupid and infantile lies ! Undoutedly the advanced people centred socialist system , the creation of the the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung is his most enduring legacy and is the cradle of happiness for the Korean people. Professor Li when we were on our way from the airport to the city told us "most definitely " housing was free of charge. Huge new blocks of house apartments have been constructed in the Mansudae district. Later during our visit a Kim Il Sung university student Ms U Jong explained the advantages of Korean style socialism in a clear and straightforward manner. She said that on April 15th her family would receive duck meat (which is expensive in the UK at least £6.82 per kg), sweets, biscuits and beer all free of charge ! This would be unthinkable in the UK . This year the Queens jubilee will be celebrated but the government will not provide any free food or drink, I was also told that the families will move into the new apartments on April 15th and that the Korean characters on top of them. Earlier in the visit we had witnessed the efforts of the government ,party and army to improve living standards when we visited the Taedong Fruit farm which is a state farm. This covers 1000 hectares of land, You can see fruit trees everywhere, It was built by the Korean Peoples Internal Security Forces, Computers are used extensively in the farm putting in advance of many British farms, The farm has its own fruit processing plant which is clean and modern, This gives its many advantages and lowers cost, No need to transport the fruit by road to a separate processing plant or pay for the costs of processing, Of course the carbon footprint is reduced as well. Visiting the farm I remembered the saying of US journalist Lincoln Steffens " I have seen the future and I know it works" We attended the World Congress on the Juche Idea held in the People's Palace of Culture, There is an incredible amount of material concerning this so it will probably have to be the subject of a separate report, The congress was attended by Juche idea followers from all corners of the globe . In fact due to the various events being held Pyongyang was host to a very large number of people with every hotel room in the City being occupied so. It was a far cry from the propaganda of the Western media that the DPRK is "closed" and "isolated ". We were able to meet and have discussions with Juche Idea followers from Russia, Bangladesh, Switzerland, Malta and South Africa just to name a few . Undoubtedly the highest point was the grand military parade on April 15 the Day of the Sun. This was simply amazing and awe inspiring to say the least. Respected general Kim Jong Un spoke. His voice was strong and authoritative. His speech was very good saying that there would be no deviation or concession . He said the Korean people must never again have to tighten their belts. At the end of the parade he waved to the crowd. Everyone cheered and jumped up and down. Respected Kim Jong Un looked very happy. He looks a like a friendly and open person. I personally felt moved when in his speech he thanked foreign supporters of the Korean revolution. The military parade consisted of both troops and various kinds of armour and guns. The first columns were in the uniforms of the anti-Japanese guerrillas and Fatherland Liberation War. Columns also represented Kim Il Sung Military University and various military academies. Schools for the bereaved children of revolutionary martyrs were also represented. The Worker-Peasant Red Guard a civilian militia were also in the parade. The was a formidable array of tanks, armoured, guns, Ack-ack units and missiles. All made in the DPRK. The tanks bore the slogan "Let Us Wipe out the US imperialists the sworn enemy of the Korean people". Probably the DPRK is the only country in the world to have such a revolutionary slogan , elsewhere socialist countries have become mired in revisionist peaceful co-existence or have pursued "reform" and "opening up". Towards the end the new missile callled "Reunification " made its appearance on a 16 wheel lorry.Our guide told us that the DPRK has now the capability to hit the Atlantic coast of the US.Seeing the parade my own personal opinion is that south Korea would be quickly destroyed if they provoked a war with the DPRK. Of course life in the DPRK is not just military parades and meetings. On the evening of April 15th we joined tens of thousands of Pyongyang citizens plus foreign guests to watch the big firework display on the Taedong river. Respected general Kim Jong Un was present here too and I was told later had been the planner of many of the firework displays in the DPRK. It was simply awe inspiring to see that Juche idea tower light up by fireworks.The next evening we joined the soirée of the youth and students of Pyongyang. Comrade Pickford acquitted himself well in dancing on Kim Il Sung square. We had numerous meetings whilst in the DPRK. We met with the International Institute of the Juche Idea and the Korean Association of Social Scientists. I met briefly with Kim Ki Nam secretary of the WPK . Also we met with the Korean Committee for Friendship with the British People and comrades from the Korean Publications Exchange Association. This report would not even be half complete if we did not mention our meeting with the Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front of south Korea.It was great to talk with them but the time was too short. They organised a wonderful lunch for us which included rainbow trout something that only rich people in my country eat. All in all it was a trip of a lifetime. It was great to be there for the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung. We could see the invincible unity of the Korean people guided by great respected general Kim Jong Un ,following the footsteps of the Juche revolutionary. Our thanks to the Korean Association of Social Scientists and the organising committee, to our guide Professor Ri, to hardworking First secretary of the DPRK embassy in London, Korean comrades in Bejiing, to the students of Kim Il Sung university, Koryo Hotel staff and to all the working people of the DPRK for making it such a worthwhile and succesful trip.

Pyongyang, April 19 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Korean Committee for Space Technology (KCST) Thursday released the following statement:

Since the KCST's announcement of the planned launch of satellite Kwangmyongsong-3 on March 16, the issue of the DPRK's satellite launch has become topic of debate in the world.

Those who sympathize with truth and love justice were unanimous in praising the plan with much expectation.

But, the unjust and ill-tempered hostile forces have worked hard to mislead public opinion with groundless assertions and sophism.

The U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their special class stooge Lee Myung Bak are taking the lead in the smear campaign.

It is their brigandish assertion and their lackey's nonsensical talk that the DPRK should not be allowed to launch a satellite for peaceful purposes.

They claim that as Kwangmyongsong-3 was launched by Unha carrier rocket, it was not a satellite but a long-range missile and it, therefore, seriously threatened the U.S. mainland and Japanese archipelago and made south Korea unstable.

Finally, they made a far-fetched assertion that the DPRK's launch of the above-said satellite was "a violation" of the UNSC resolution and a grave "violation" of the DPRK-U.S. agreement and a military "provocation" to them.

We would like to ask them whether the U.S. and other satellite launchers have ever launched their satellites after getting approval from someone and has there ever been a precedent that satellites lifted by carrier rockets of other countries were not termed satellites. Did the U.S. or Japan lift their satellites with puffs of breath or with magic strength?

We have never recognized the UNSC resolution, a product of sinister intentions of the hostile forces. Moreover, it does not contain any paragraph banning satellite launch of the DPRK.

The February 29 DPRK-U.S. agreement has no paragraph banning the satellite launch of the DPRK, except the paragraph which says the U.S. respects the sovereignty of the DPRK and no longer antagonizes it.

The situation goes to prove that it is none other than the U.S., Japanese reactionaries and the Lee group blindly following them that cooked up the illegal resolution and are unilaterally scrapping the bilateral agreement by abusing it in wanton violation of other country's sovereignty and the fair international order.

No sooner had the UNSC, which has lost impartiality as an international body long ago, again issued its presidential statement finding fault with the DPRK's satellite launch for peaceful purposes than the Lee Myung Bak group recklessly kicked off a smear campaign to please its master as if it had been waiting for it.

This disgusting behavior of the traitor reminiscent of a rabid dog's desperate barking is shame on the Korean nation.

The KCST clarifies the following principled stand after coolly following the moves of different forces before and after the DPRK's satellite launch for peaceful purposes:

1. It is necessary to eliminate as early as possible such special class stooges as traitor Lee in order to develop space science and technology of the nation as required by the age of knowledge-based economy.

By origin, Lee Myung Bak is an underwit with 2MB of knowledge in terms of science and technology and he lacks even elementary scientific thinking ability.

He claimed that the DPRK's satellite launch was a product of "arms race," unable to distinguish a satellite from a long-range missile. This is because he is such underwit that he is unable to judge even the most elementary issue of politics and military affair.

He learned peculiar craftiness and disposition as a dealer while living in Japan and became a running dog of the U.S. and Japanese masters. It is quite natural for this guy to lack such great thinking ability as a human being.

As it became clear that the north was supposed to launch a satellite, Lee quickly echoed his master's demand for holding it in check and is now barking like a rabid dog.

It is Lee who never misses the chance to bluster "the launch of missile should be checked at any cost" and "there will be international aid and cooperation if the north dismantles nukes and opts for reforms and opening", unaware of where he stands.

Among the successive "masters" of Chongwadae there was no such "immature president," "foolish president" and "ignorant president" as Lee Myung Bak.

It is by no means fortuitous that the south Korean political and social circles are becoming vocal demanding Lee quit politics as early as possible, describing his four year-term politics as "failed politics", "wicked politics" and "politics with nothing worth retrospection."

Lee should respond to the desire and demand of the mindset of people by leaving this world, though belatedly.

It is the invariable stand of the KCST that such human scum as Lee should be eliminated at an early date to develop space science and technology of the nation.

2. In order to put space science and technology on orbit, it is necessary to shatter all the obstructions of the hostile forces in the field of science and technology, too, and firmly protect the sovereignty of the country.

Sovereignty is what keeps the country and the nation alive.

Any country and nation deprived of its sovereignty is more dead than alive.

That is why the Korean people have as ever struggled with the indomitable faith and will that they cannot abandon the sovereignty of the country and the nation though they may sacrifice their lives.

To launch satellites is the DPRK's legitimate right to independence and it is an exercise of sovereignty in line with the Outer Space Treaty which stipulates the use of space for peaceful purposes shall be the right of all countries. Accordingly, the U.S. or any other existing satellite launchers are not entitled to interfere in the DPRK's satellite launch for peaceful purpose.

If such arrogant encroachment upon the sovereignty of the DPRK by the U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers are overlooked, they will try to deprive people of the most elementary right to existence, their right to eat, use and live in the long run.

It is the ambition of the U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers for domination under the jungle law to deter the DPRK from launching satellites for peaceful purposes if it does not yield to their high-handed and arbitrary practices.

The Korean nation is no longer a miserable weak one in a colony in the past when it regarded sycophancy and ruined nation as its fate. It is no longer a weak country which had been ruthlessly trampled down by big powers after being reduced to a theater for re-dividing colonies.

Our socialist country is a full-fledged political and military power which put the dignity of the nation and the sovereignty of the country onto the highest level in the world as it is holding the great men in high esteem.

Absolutely intolerable is the outrageous attempt of the U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers to stretch tentacles of aggression and domination even to space.

It is the steadfast stand of the Korean Committee for Space Technology to achieve the equal development of space science and technology by thoroughly protecting the dignity of the nation and the sovereignty of the country.

3. The army and people of the DPRK will shatter all the obstructions of the U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers and more dynamically advance for the peaceful use of space along the road of Songun.

Scientists and technicians of the DPRK have already wound up the specific and scientific probe into the cause of Kwangmyongsong-3's failure to enter its orbit.

All the scientific and technological data and precious experience gained this time will serve as a very precious boon to space development and a reliable guarantee for greater success in the days ahead.

We have a comprehensive state plan for space development including expansion and strengthening of space development institutions as required by latest science and technology and continued launch of working satellites needed for the country's economic development.

The U.S. is now keen to deprive the DPRK of its right to space development while showing off food "aid" worth a petty amount of money but it is nothing but a foolish dream.

Our army and people have lived without any U.S. "support" and someone's "cooperation".

We have all substantial foundations for enabling our people to fully enjoy wealth and prosperity under socialism, without tightening their belts any longer.

The might of our socialist country can never be gauged by the calculation method of those obsessed by money making such as Lee Myung Bak or by the calculation method of the imperialists.

The U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers should deeply grasp the profound meaning of the aphorism that the single-minded unity and invincible military capability plus the industrial revolution in the new century precisely mean our thriving socialist nation.

The sky-high spirit of Juche Korea dynamically advancing toward the development of cutting-edge science and technology will be fully displayed in the struggle to conquer space, too.

The world will clearly know how the struggle for justice and truth for protecting sovereignty will be crowned with victory, while watching dignified satellites of the DPRK being put into vast space one after another.

No matter how loudly the U.S. and Japanese reactionaries and their followers may cry and no matter how frantically the Lee Myung Bak group of rats may squeak, the DPRK's satellites for peaceful purposes will be put into space one after another. -0-

Pyongyang, April 19 (KCNA) -- The DPRK government, political parties and organizations issued the following statement on Thursday:

The Korean nation and humankind celebrated the centenary of the birth of President Kim Il Sung as the most auspicious grand festival of the century at a time when songs praising the peerlessly great man reverberated far and wide in the world along with the ever-lasting April of the sun's Korea.

The grand festival held to mark the 100th Day of the Sun amid the great jubilation and excitement of all the Koreans and people of the rest of the world was a manifestation of boundless praise of the whole Korean nation and humankind of Kim Il Sung, who brought a bright hope for national resurrection to the country torn with distress due to flunkeyism and national ruin and ushered in a new era of history in which the independent life and happiness of the popular masses were blooming and of leader Kim Jong Il, who enabled the Korean nation to demonstrate its dignity, pride and wisdom before the whole world. It was, at the same time, an expression of the highest tribute and the most profound thanks to the benefactors of the nation and the peerlessly great men.

In particular, it was a great event which showed the bright future of the sun's Korea and demonstrated the unbreakable, harmonious whole before the world which will bring a reunified thriving nation and socialist wealth and prosperity in the new centenary of Juche by having Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Un at the helm of the Songun revolution and carrying forward the will of the great persons of Mt. Paektu.

Never has Korea made all its people seethe with such joy and excitement and drawn such close attention of the world as the recent celebrations of the 100th Day of the Sun.

This being a hard fact, the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors hell-bent on confrontation with fellow countrymen committed such thrice-cursed high treason as chilling the atmosphere of the great national jubilee and letting loose a whole string of invectives, far from congratulating them on the day.

At a time when the celebrations of the Day of the Sun were under way in the DPRK, in particular, traitor Lee made a public appearance and jabbered that the north might spend a ridiculous amount of money for launching a long-range missile and that amount of fund would be enough to buy a large quantity of maize. Echoing his outbursts, ultra-right conservative media spread the story that the north spent a fabulous amount of fund for the celebrations of the Day of the Sun, talking about "funds for feast" and the like, adding that the amount of funds would be enough to procure food for several years' consumption.

This is lashing all the service personnel and people across the country into great fury as it is an unpardonable insult and hideous provocation against their leader, social system and people.

From olden times, Koreans used to say nothing is more sinful than spraying ash on the feast table of neighbors.

Even people of many other countries with different languages and races shared joy with Koreans, sincerely congratulating them on their great jubilee. But it is only the group of traitors, displeased with it, made such fuss, even spreading misinformation about the expenses for the events. This glaringly shows how wicked the Lee group is and how frantic it goes with confrontation with compatriots.

The group's frantic smear campaign is nothing but the last-ditch efforts to tarnish the international image of the DPRK, break the single-minded unity of the party and the people and quell the lively response evoked by the celebrations of the Day of the Sun at any cost.

The DPRK's recent grand celebrations of the Day of the Sun are a striking demonstration of its tremendous national power and potential.

The group of traitors seems to be ignorant of all these stark facts as it is free to let loose such nonsense.

What is intolerable is that the puppet group is busy with the above-said smear campaign while decrying the celebrations of the Day of the Sun, deliberately talking about a financial estimate. This is a mockery and insult to the unblemished and ardent loyalty of the army and people of the DPRK.

The group of traitors, the most wicked group of sharks, can never understand the noble spiritual world and dignity and pride of the army and people of the DPRK which it can never buy even with tens of millions of tons of gold.

The Korean people have traversed only the road of victory, weathering stern ordeals in defence of their independent dignity.

Herein lies the mental power with which the Korean people have turned the DPRK into an invincible power under the uplifted banner of Songun while tightening their belts.

Before speaking ill of the north over expenses and the like, the Lee Myung Bak group had better think over its own wretched plight: It has become a target of the people's judgment for squandering a fabulous amount of money collected from the people as taxes for the upkeep of the U.S. imperialist aggression troops in south Korea and moves for a war against the DPRK and converting south Korea into a dark society and a land ridden with suicides where the rich gets richer and the poor poorer while seeking personal luxury and glory, engrossed in irregularities and corruptions.

The puppet group recklessly desecrated even the celebrations of the Day of the Sun in the wake of hideous provocative acts of malignantly besmirching the events held over the great loss to the nation and hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK. This indicates that the group is making desperate efforts to do harm to the DPRK's social system and single-minded unity.

The army and the people of the DPRK consider the dignity of the supreme leadership and the harmonious whole with the leader as dearer than their own lives. They, therefore, will never pardon anyone who provokes them even a bit.

It is foolish, indeed, for the group to try to break the harmonious whole in which the leader and the people are united in the noblest will and feelings and their unity is growing stronger day by day, talking about such financial estimate.

By blatantly insulting and challenging our leader, social system and people, the group revealed itself that it is the sworn enemy with whom the Korean nation can never live under the same sky.

A particular mention should be made of the fact that Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un in his speech at the military parade for celebrating the centenary of the birth of the President clarified the magnanimous and positive stand that we will join hands with whoever wants the reunification of the country and the peace and prosperity of the nation. The group of traitors, however, responded to this with its reckless and sinister smear campaign, a clear indication of its sinister intention to keep to the road of confrontation with fellow countrymen.

The patience of the army and people of the DPRK has reached its limit. Their hearts are burning with the determination to wipe out the group of traitors in this land to the last man so that they may not kick off any longer such racket as hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.

The army and people will no longer remain a passive onlooker to the smear campaign of the puppet group.

The arms and artillery pieces of all the service personnel and people are ready to fire bullets and bombs for revenge. The weaponry of Mt. Paektu is clearly aimed at the wicked traitors.

The group should apologize at once for its hideous acts of desecrating the events held on the Day of the Sun in the DPRK.

Otherwise, all the service personnel and people of the DPRK will turn out in a sacred war for revenge, giving vent to their towering resentment, and make a clean sweep of the puppet group of traitors from this land once and for all.

Conservative media and wicked media persons keen on the smear campaign for hurting the dignity of the DPRK in collusion with traitor Lee Myung Bak will never be excluded from severe punishment as they have committed despicable crimes against the nation.

The puppet group would be well advised to properly understand all the service personnel and people of the DPRK, their hearts burning with the resolution to take a thousand-fold revenge, and stop its rash acts. -0-

ASSOCIATION FOR THE STUDY OF SONGUN POLITICS UKwww.uk-songun.com email juche007@yahoo.co.uk London 19th of April Juche 101(2012)

The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK , the Juche Idea Study Group of England and the UK Korean Friendship Association today issued the following statement in support of the DPRK's stance regarding the negative actions of the "UN Security resolution " as expressed by the statement of the DPRK Foreign Ministry of the 17th of April. The UNSC does not have the authority or place to pass resolutions or issue statements on the DPRK's satellite launch as this is the independent and sovereign right of the DPRK. Indeed it is abnormal that the US and UNSC should take issue with the satellite launch and kick up a fuss. Many countries in the world have launched satellites or even tested ICBMs without a single peep coming out of the UNSC. The fact that the UNSC has chosen to involve itself in this issue simply demonstrates that the UNSC is just a mouthpiece of the US imperialists and other imperialists and big powers. It is pursuing an unjust and one sided. The previous UNSC resolutions referred to in the "presidential statement" were rejected by the DPRK and are illegal ones. Rather than acting as fair organisation , the UNSC is indeed following a highly discriminatory anti-DPRK policy, if equality and diversity laws were applied to international affairs then the US and UNSC would be breaking them many times over. All the UNSC "presidential statement goes to prove is that the UNSC is simply a policy instrument of the US ,that is a vehicle for the US to stifle Korean-stye socialism centred upon the popular masses. The "presidential statement " of the UNSC rather than contributing to the relaxation of tension and building peace simply complicates the situation and creates more tension. This shows the poor face of the UNSC. Our organisations support the three points made by the DPRK Foreign Ministry. It is the independent and sovereign right of the DPRK to pursue a satellite programme which no one should interfere in or take issue with . We applaud the DPRK's stance in no longer being bound by the February 29th statement, we believe that anyway the DPRK can resolve some matters on the basis of self-reliance rather than the illusory 'assistance' of the US.

Pyongyang, April 18 (KCNA) -- The Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea (CPRK) issued a statement slamming traitor Lee Myung Bak for again committing hideous provocation of hurting the social system and the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.

Traitor Lee malignantly hurt the social system and dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK, while talking about nuclear and missile development of the north in an internet and radio speech on April 16 when celebrations for the centenary of the birth of the Day of the Sun were underway in the DPRK.

He even took issue with the slogan "Let Us Live Our Own Way!" by blustering that the dismantlement of nuclear weapons and reform, opening and changes only are what would keep the north alive.

The puppet group of traitors mobilized all the ultra-right conservative media, kicking up smear campaign of speaking ill of the celebrations for the Day of the Sun in the DPRK. The group even egged old ultra-right elements and paid conservative youth organizations and other conservative riff-raffs on to fire at the images representing the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK and went the lengths of hurting the portraits of the great men of Mt. Paektu.

This is another unpardonable and thrice-cursed hideous provocation.

The celebrations for the Day of the Sun marked a grand centennial festival that reviewed with pride the 100-year history of the Sun's Korea, that ended the history of the nation's distress as a wretched colony and demonstrated the biggest honor and dignity, and promised the bright tomorrow of a prosperous reunified country and the future of mankind who has achieved independence.

All the Koreans and the world admired the grand celebrations with keen interest and congratulated the great auspicious event with sincerity.

It was only traitor Lee and his group who kicked up smear campaign, speaking ill of the grand festival held by the compatriots. This proved that they are the worst hooligans bereft of the soul of the nation and conscience as a human being and the most despicable savages with whom one can not live under the same sky.

The smear campaign kicked up by the puppet group is last-ditch efforts of those shocked by the might of the single-minded unity and the tremendous military power that were demonstrated through the celebrations for the Day of the Sun. It was also the desperate bid to curb the world from cheering the solemn declaration made by the DPRK of the start of the new times of great succession.

Traitor Lee took the lead in making vituperation only to disclose his nature as a wicked confrontation-minded and anti-reunification element. This was a disgusting deed to maintain his failed confrontation policy and prolong his remaining days at death-bed.

The Lee group made up of dirty philistines who know nothing but money calculated the fund used for the celebrations, running whole gamut of calumnies and vituperation. But what is incalculable with money is the single-minded unity and the might of Songun.

Do they know that the DPRK has the single-minded unity of the army and people around the heaven-sent brilliant commander which is more powerful than nuclear weapons and inter-continental ballistic missiles.

The single-minded unity has guaranteed the glorious 100-year history of Juche Korea and it will guarantee tens of thousands of years of the Sun's Korea to come.

"Changes" in the DPRK touted by the group is sheer sophism and the puppet group of conservatives faces the stern judgment by the south Koreans who want changes.

The repeated provocations against the DPRK show that traitor Lee can never drop his nature as a confrontation element and such a wicked man should be punished without mercy. It also proved that the DPRK's judgment and decision were quite right.

The Koreans including south Koreans can never escape disaster and misfortune if the despicable group of traitors as Lee is allowed to lord it over.

The indignation and hatred of the army and people of the DPRK at the Lee group of traitors are running sky-high. They are full of pledge to stamp out the hideous provokers to the last man.

The Lee group will get nothing but destruction from its reckless confrontation racket.

The group will be made to pay a dear price for its provocations and will never be able to evade the most miserable fate. -0

Pyongyang, April 18 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Supreme Command of the Korean People's Army on April 18 issued the following statement:

The army and people of the DPRK celebrated in splendor with great national pride the centenary of the auspicious 100th Day of the Sun amid great attention and expectation of the whole world.

The celebrations were a grand political festival as they demonstrated the unshakable resolution of the army and people of the DPRK to dynamically advance toward the new century of Juche full of conviction and optimism after reviewing with pride the glorious 100-year-long history of Juche Korea.

The festive atmosphere ran high as Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un was elected to the top post of the party, state and revolution of the DPRK. The world came to look up to the DPRK with admiration and envy, saying that the most prominent man appeared in Korea in the East.

The people in the south are warmly hailing with national pride and honor the "appearance of extraordinary young leader" as the "rebirth of President Kim Il Sung", the father of the nation and great sage.

Even at this hour an unprecedented jubilee which started in this land and is spreading to various parts of the world is turning into mankind's events replete with "worship for Kim Jong Un" and "trust in Kim Jong Un".

It is only traitor Lee Myung Bak and his group that are committing such extreme provocations as chilling the festive atmosphere of fellow countrymen and daring hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.

The Lee group is hurling elder reactionaries of the "ROK Elders Alliance" and student hooligans into Kwanghwamun Square and other parts of Seoul to stage such hideous rowdyism as hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.

The group is wirepulling behind the scene such reckless acts as egging riff-raffs on to set up models portraying the supreme leadership of the DPRK and fire at them.

From right after the grand military parade of the DPRK to celebrate the Day of the Sun, the Lee group let wicked conservative media including Dong-A Ilbo paint a wrong picture of even the image of the dignified DPRK for its false propaganda purpose.

No matter how frantic the group may get with confrontation with fellow countrymen and no matter how high-handed it may go, there should always be a limit.

In view of the ceaseless grave provocations which should not be overlooked, the Supreme Command of the Korean People's Army, as already declared, solemnly re-clarifies the will to wage an uninterrupted all-army and all-people sacred war to wipe out the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors, the sworn enemy with whom the nation can never live under the same sky.

The dynamic march past of ranks of paraders and powerful means for limitless strike on the square to celebrate the auspicious Day of the Sun will lead to the Korean-style battles to blow up the stronghold of the group of traitors.

When the group of traitors committed the thrice-cursed treason against the nation which suffered the great loss last year and hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK at units of the puppet army later, the DPRK warned the group of those crimes and clarified internally and externally its stand to take merciless retaliatory actions.

What is more irrepressible and intolerable is the resentment of the army and people of the DPRK at the group of traitors.

The immediate goal of the DPRK is to cut off the windpipes of the group and its followers hell-bent on hideous provocations and blow up the bases for provocations in the land and sky.

The single-mindedly united army and people of the DPRK who regard the dignity of the supreme leadership as more precious than their own lives will take merciless revenge upon any perpetrator of hideous provocations no matter where he is.

As even the heart of Seoul is served as a base for provocative acts of hurting the dignity of the DPRK's supreme leadership, the DPRK will take a special action to blow up everything there.

Then the group will keenly realize what merciless punishment the whole army and all people of the DPRK will mete out to it for the thrice-cursed treason committed up to now.

No matter how desperately dogs may bark, they can do nothing against the bright sun.

The army and people of the DPRK who hold its supreme commander in high esteem as the eternal sun will step up the historic advance for prosperity at the watershed of history in which a new century of Juche starts, while waging a sacred war to wipe out a tiny handful of group of traitors to the last man.

Those who dare provoke the inviolable DPRK should bear in mind that they would never be able to escape a stern punishment. -0-

The Juche Idea Study Group of England has just returned from an extremely successful though busy visit to the DPRK. We participated in the events to celebrate the 100th centenary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung and the World Conference on the Juche idea. We will be posting full reports of the visit in the coming days and weeks.

The U.S. and its followers committed a hostile act of violating the DPRK's right to satellite launch by abusing the United Nations Security Council again.

On April 16 the UNSC issued a statement of its chairman "condemning" the DPRK's satellite launch for peaceful purposes.

The DPRK took steps to show the sincerity and transparency of the satellite launch for peaceful purposes to the maximum from A to Z as an exception and aroused sympathy of broad world public.

The U.S., finding it hard to conceal the truth, after hatching all sorts of dastardly trick to prevent the peaceful nature of the DPRK's satellite launch from being confirmed objectively and persistently term it a long-range missile launch, imposed upon the UNSC its brigandish demand that the DPRK should not be allowed to launch even a satellite for peaceful purposes.

The UNSC has been abused under the pressure of high-handed and arbitrary practices of the U.S. and its catastrophic consequences have been felt still today in various parts of the world.

UNSC resolutions 1718 and 1874 which the hostile forces regard as the "ground" to take issue with the DPRK's satellite launch are a product of their high-handed policy for antagonizing and oppressing the DPRK and the height of illegality they faked up at random, disregarding even universally accepted international law.

It is the brigandish essence of these resolutions that those countries which refuse to meekly obey the U.S. should not be allowed to develop their national defence capability and to this end they should be deprived of even their right to launch satellites for peaceful purposes.

Such unreasonable double standards are possible at the UNSC because such standards are in line with the interests of those countries keen to monopolize such cutting-edge technology as satellite launch.

The present developments clearly show that the principle of equality as regards sovereignty clarified in the UN Charter is a mere high-sounding word and justice should be protected by one's own efforts.

The DPRK Foreign Ministry declares as follows in connection with the grave infringement upon the right of the sovereign state to launch satellites for peaceful purposes:

Firstly, we resolutely and totally reject the unreasonable behavior of the UNSC to violate the DPRK's legitimate right to launch satellites.

It is the unshakable principle of the army and people of the DPRK not to tolerate even the slightest element to deride and encroach upon the dignity of the nation and the sovereignty of the country.

Secondly, we will continue exercising the independent right to use space recognized by the universally accepted international laws which are above the UNSC resolutions.

We will expand and strengthen space development institutions and continue launching a variety of working satellites needed for economic development of the country including geostationary satellites under the state plan for space development.

Nothing can stand in the way of the DPRK's space development for peaceful purposes.

Thirdly, as the U.S. violated the Feb. 29 DPRK-U.S. agreement through its undisguised hostile acts, we will no longer be bound to it.

We have repeatedly clarified from the outset that we will sincerely implement the Feb. 29 agreement to the last and took practical steps to implement it as the satellite launch for peaceful purposes is an issue quite different from the agreement.

No sooner had the DPRK's plan for satellite launch been announced than the U.S. suspended the process for the provision of food pursuant to the DPRK-U.S. agreement under that pretext. This time, the U.S. spearheaded the hostile act of encroaching upon the DPRK's legitimate right to launch satellites by abusing the position as chairman of the UNSC.

The U.S. finally reneged on its promise that "it respects the sovereignty of the DPRK and has no hostile intent toward it" in practice, totally violating the Feb. 29 agreement.

We have thus become able to take necessary retaliatory measures, free from the agreement. The U.S. will be held wholly accountable for all the ensuing consequences.

Peace is very dear for us but the dignity of the nation and the sovereignty of the country are dearer for us. -0

Pyongyang, April 6 (KCNA) -- The construction of the Huichon Power Station has been completed in the DPRK.

The completion makes it possible to more satisfactorily settle the shortage of electricity in Pyongyang, protect cultivated land and residential areas along the River Chongchon from flood and ensure an ample supply of industrial water to the industrial establishments in Huichon and Namhung areas.

The builders finished the construction of the power station in a matter of three years though it would have taken more than a decade at normal pace.

Inaugural ceremonies were held at Huichon Power Station Nos. 1 and 2 on Thursday.

A joint congratulatory message sent by the Central Committee and Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea to the soldier-builders, members of the shock brigades, officials and helpers who distinguished themselves in the construction of the power station was conveyed there.

The message said that the builders, who devotedly carried out the behests of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il and demonstrated before the whole world that Korea does what it is determined to do, are true descendants of the President, soldiers and disciples faithful to Kim Jong Il and heroes of the times and patriots to be respected by the whole country.

The Party will always remember the heroic feats performed by the builders who erected a gigantic structure for the country's prosperity and its people's happiness, it noted.

It highly praised them for successfully building a giant power base in Huichon in a short span of time and thereby making a great contribution to settling the shortage of electricity in the country and instilling conviction of sure victory and hope into all people.

Choe Yong Rim, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee and premier of the Cabinet, made addresses at the ceremonies.

He said that the Huichon Power Station is a monumental structure built in the Songun era thanks to the wise leadership provided by Kim Jong Il to build a thriving socialist nation on this land.

Referring to the achievements made in the construction, Choe noted these are the brilliant fruition of the wise guidance and meticulous care of Kim Jong Il and the dear respected Kim Jong Un who unrolled a grandiose plan for the building of the power station and energetically led the drive for its completion.

London 7th of April Juche 101 (2012)

The ASSPUK and JISGE today issued the following joint statement saluting the 80th anniversary of the foundation of the Korean People's Army .

We Juche idea-Songun idea followers in the UK salute the 80th anniversary of the foundation of the KPA which is being celebrated at a time when at a time when the KPA,under the leadership of respected general Kim Jong Un is bravely defending the Juche motherland,the fortress of socialism against the provocations of the US imperialists , south Korean fascist puppets and international reactionaries
The KPA was founded originally as the Anti Japanese Peoples Guerrilla Army,in 1932, by the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung, a gifted military strategist and ever -victorious iron willed brilliant commander. It was developed into the Korean People’s Revolutionary Army. This is the root of the Songun revolution. By using protean tactics and true military genius General Kim Il Sung defeated the million strong army of Japanese imperialism.

The Korean People’s Army, under the wise leadership of the great leader Marshal Kim Il Sung, took over and carried forward the traditions of the anti Japanese armed struggle. It is based solidly on revolutionary comradeship. Moreover a tradition of army -people unity was created and today flourishes in Songun Korea

Under the wise leadership of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung the KPA grew into steel strong ranks each soldier being a match for a hundred enemy soldiers

The KPA inflicted a crushing defeat on the US imperialists in the great Fatherland Liberation War of 1950-1953.The KPA also defeated the US in the ‘Pueblo incident’,'EC121 incident’ and ‘Panmunjom incident’ of 1976.

The KPA became a true Juche orientated revolutionary armed force and is the army of the party,the working class and the leader. New theories of warfare have been created.'Moreover under the leadership of the great leader generalissimo Kim Il Sung the KPA stuck to class and revolutionary principles, the revisionist and opportunist " non class" theories were soundly smashed, The leadership of the party over the armed forces was maintained and enhanced unlike some countries where socialism was frustrated,

The might of the KPA was further strengthened under the leadership of supreme commander Kim Jong Il ,who practised Songun politics giving priority to the KPA regarding it as the central pillar of the revolution. The KPA under the Songun revolutionary leadership of the great leader the KPA grew stronger in terms of ideology and politics but also materially. It is now equipped with the latest weaponry and has its own independent deterrent force. The KPA under the command of the Songun supreme commander Kim Jong Il and respected general Kim Jong Un smashed the provocations of the south Korean puppets in November 2010 turning Yongphyong island into sea of flames.
The 80 years of history of the Korean People's Army have been 80 years of victory and glory , The KPA , the vanguard force of the Songun revolution, has defeated the imperialists many times, and under the leadership of supreme commander Kim Jong Un will defeat them again.
Today the destiny of world socialism depends on the rifles of the Korean People's Army headed by respected supreme commander Kim Jong Un. The DPRK is on the frontline of the struggle between socialism and imperialism. It stands guard over the independence of the DPRK and the people-centred socialism , the authentic socialism. We salute the anniversary of the Korean People's Army
LONG LIVE THE KOREAN PEOPLE'S ARMY
LONG LIVE SONGUN !
LONG LIVE RESPECTED GENERAL KIM JONG UN

Pyongyang, April 5 (KCNA) -- The ultra-right conservative forces of south Korea are working hard to revive the ill-famed "yusin" dictatorial rule.

It is none other than Park Geun Hye, daughter of Park Chung-Hee, who is playing a leading role in this drive.

Park Chung-Hee was known in history as a traitor to the nation and an enemy of democracy.

He pledged himself in blood to make a "self-sacrificing service" for the Japanese emperor during the Japanese imperialists' colonial rule over Korea and stood in the van of punitive operations against participants in the movement for independence. He staged the May 16 military coup, making a mess of achievements gained by the April 19 Popular Uprising.

He ruled south Korea in the period when there were two conflicting views on value: the nation and treachery and reunification and actions against it, lording it over as an incarnation of treachery and anti-reunification acts.

Even after signing the July 4 joint statement, he declared "two Koreas" as a policy and pursued permanent division of the nation. He left no means and methods untried to seek a permanent stay in power before being shot to death by his confident, forsaken by his American master.

One cannot tell a lie about blood vein and bloodline, therefore, can never change.

With no veil of "change" and "revamping" can Park Geun Hye ever cover up her inveterate nature bequeathed to her by her father.

Among any other things, she seeks to revive fascist and anti- reunification nature.

She is recklessly taking the lead in the moves to escalate confrontation with fellow countrymen. In the wake of the release of the important report on the demise of the father of the nation, she categorically opposed the dispatch of a mourners' group of the "National Assembly" involving ruling and opposition parties proposed by the Democratic United Party (the then Democratic Party).

During her visit to Pyongyang in 2002, she voiced support for the June 15 joint declaration and called for reconciliation and cooperation, asking for help. However, she malignantly slandered the DPRK in denial of the north-south joint declaration.

She is busy kicking up "the north wind," branding the forces for democratic reforms in south Korea as "forces serving the north."

She went the lengths of soliciting for pressure on the north, describing the DPRK's planned launch of satellite as a "long-range missile launch" and "challenge to peace."

She is a confrontation maniac opposed to the nation as she is little different from traitor Lee Myung Bak.

It is as clear as daylight that if these clans seize power, the inter-Korean relations will be brought to a more uncontrollable phase and the departed soul of horrible "yusin" dictatorship be brought back to south Korea.

As a matter of fact, with Park Geun Hye becoming the focus of conservative politics, the remnants of "yusin" are raising their heads in various parts of south Korea though they had been pushed to the margin of history.

The revival of "yusin" dictatorship in south Korea precisely means a perfidy to history.

This would accelerate the fascistization of south Korean society and throw a stumbling block in the way of reunification, the cherished desire of the nation, and thus make the possibility of bringing back the reconciliation and unity between the north and the south fade away for good.

The south Koreans have suffered from the danger of war, their democracy and human rights wantonly violated due to Lee's fascist dictatorship and moves to deteriorate the inter-Korean relations. They, therefore, do not want to see the traitorous policy of the conservative group to persist.

The south Koreans should never be fooled by the Park Chung-Hee clan that repeated their disguises, betraying the country and the nation and discarding even their thought and conscience in quest of power. They should sternly punish and oust them from the arena of history. -0-
